Coach Watts Press Conference

Today, Coach Annette Watts was officially introduced as a member of the Gamecock family, in a press conference. I truly believe she is happy to be here. She sees some great potential for the Lady Gamecock basketball program.

After listening to her speak today, I believe we will see a team next year that will play hard, play sound fundamental basketball, make free throws, and play with discipline. Coach Watts brings excitement and credibility with her. Coach Watts comes to JSU after a successful career at Davidson College. She also served as an assistant under the legendary coach, Kay Yow. I'm looking forward to seeing the improvement once our team buys into her system.

Coach Watts talked about the academic programs at JSU, the geographic proximity to GA and TN, and the talent in the state of Alabama, when she discussed recruiting. She spoke of finding players with ability, attitude, and passion for the game.

If it's true that a team can take on the personality of a coach, then I believe we can look forward to good things.
